Veronica kissing the homies pt1.

[toxinoire]

a villains Heathers x hero Veronica scenario where the Heathers finally found the identity of hero that got in the way of their plans.

just to not only feel horrible that the hero is their blue girlfriend but also extreme worry of why she was putting herself in such danger.

OOOH I LOVE SECRET IDENTITY SHIT

(Sorry I took a while, school happened.)

~~~~~

Heather, Heather and Heather feel victorious as the hero falls to the ground, mask coming off.

"What's wrong, hero? Can't stand up anymore?" Heather mocked.

No answer.

Just as Heather was about to blast her, she paused. She gasped and dropped her weapon as she saw who's under the hero's mask.

"Heather, what the hell? Why aren't you-" Heather's eyes widened. "Veronica?"

"What?" Heather looks at the hero, who's currently unconscious, and sees the face of not their nemesis, but their girlfriend.

The only person that has given all three of them a sense of normality.

Why...why her of all people? Why did it have to be Veronica? Veronica was hurt by this place too. She was also treated so, so unfairly. And yet here she is, willingly putting herself in danger to save it.

Veronica has more of a reason to be a villain than all of them do, they would know, for even Heather, Heather and Heather themselves has caused a lot of pain in Veronica's life before they had resolved it. Yet...and yet she chose to save.

Heather carried Veronica and brought her home.

"We'll have to speak to her when she wakes up..." Said Heather.

Heather nods. "We do. Why would she endanger herself like this, every single day, for this stupid place that had caused her to hide for so long?"

"I don't understand it either." Said Heather. "Then again, Veronica has always been better than us."

"I don't know if I can handle this..." Said Heather. "We've fought her for years on end, we were about to win, until our Achilles' heel got shoved in our faces when her mask fell off. We almost died multiple times as villains. And just now Veronica, the hero, almost died." She sighed. "I'm glad the mask fell off, I don't know if I could've bared it if I learned we killed Veronica."

Heather nods. "Yeah..."

"She...she believed in us despite us proving her wrong so many times...we've moved forward from that. But it seems we're still hurting her." Said Heather.

"I hate this." Heather sighed. "I never wanted to hurt Veronica ever again. But we did. We may not have known, but the fact that we never even caught it..." She looked at Veronica. "Among those scars...which were the old ones and which were from us?

Heather shrugged. "I dunno, but my best guess is majority of it."

They don't know what to do. This is not how they thought the reveal would happen, nor did they even think that it could've been Veronica. Yet here they are. W-

"Guys?"

GUYS I did something

Ok so, I thought it was a bright idea to put the nevermore cast into the hunger games simulator and it went FUCKING WILD

The first thing of note happened it and was fucking this....

and if I said things did not quickly devolve after this I would be a bold faced LIAR

(yes I added Theo to this because there were slots that needed to be filled and I don't regret it one bit,) I then realized that main character-itis runs in the Vandernatch family, and that Theo would alter the timeline permanently just by being alive

The misfits become Vandernatch's and co which reminded me of a semi-old post on here about a crack ship involving Theo (you'll see why this becomes relevant later)

(me too buddy) but also like fair, go off fam!

And then Morella enters her serial killer arc....

Cannon (me too buddy)

and the serial killer arc continues....

THERE IT IS! I promised you the crack ship would come back into play!

This is where shit hits the fan though.... The only two people left at this point were MORELLA AND ADA...

Awww cute Morellada momen-

in all honesty though, someone else major fuck up is the only way Ada would win one of these things

Ranpo’s Personality Theory

Okay, before I start writing I am going to give a quick warning. The things I write hurts, because I am an over thinker, who is always trying to find trends and connections. If I write more of these, they will hurt. The truth always hurts. 

ANYWAY, HERE YA GO.

Theory: Ranpo has a childish and immature persona, to hide all of the grief and darkness he’s seen. 

This darkness, he bears, stems from all the investigations and pasts, of all the victims. We get a taste of the work Ranpo meddles with in two circumstances; ‘Murder On D Street’ and ‘Dreaming Of Butterflies’.

Dreaming Of Butterflies:

The first piece of evidence, of this, is Yosano Akiko, in ‘Dreaming Of Butterflies’ Yosano’s past he absolutely horrifying. She was forceably drafter into War of Ability Users, and was to heal the wounds of every soldier. However, Yosano can only heal physical wounds, not trauma. Yosano was forced to heal the soldiers but in the end, not even the soldiers wanted to live anymore, thus calling her an Angel Of Death. During a fight between Mori and Fukuzawa, about Yosano’s past, Ranpo escapes with her. She tells Ranpo: “I can’t go on living like this” and “Is there a place where its okay for me to go on living?”. Ranpo replies, “Join the detective agency” and “We dont want your ability. What we want is that “kindness””. He takes her burden, and gives light that she can see. It was that moment, that changed Yosano’s future. He made her into a strong diligent woman, who shows her kindness to all. Ranpo showed her light and it made her human again. The conversation that occured between the both of them, would’ve emotionally impacted him, if he didn’t resort to his childish, immature ways. His kindness is comparable to an innocent child. He is a child of light and innocence, who gives the light to all those around him. Or at least that’s what he mainly show us. He’s probably seen some of the worst things, on his cases. To be able to bear all of that burden and darkness, everyone at the agency must worship that. 

Murder On D Street:

Throughout this episode, Ranpo doesn’t react to the body of the woman laying there. He rather, orders his priorities and analyses it, briefly, to gather up his leads to the murderer. He only says, “Poor Lady”, to evoke an emotional response, making sure to not become truly numb to the sight. From this, we can tell that he is used to the sight of bodies, and the dead, but is not completely broken at the sight. He must’ve had many more cases revolving around the dead, possibly something as severe as dismemberment or suicide. 

Conclusion:

He uses childish behaviour to hold his mentality together. Even with this all in mind, he knows he doesn’t have an ability to protect himself, especially when he delves into some of the dangerous investigations in Yokohama. 100% Ranpo would constantly repeat over and over about how he has an ability that will help everyone. Otherwise, the dark truth, of the fact he can’t protect everyone, would settle in. The dark truth, that he isn’t as strong as the other members, would rip him apart. “If I’m happy, you’re happy” basically says that if he knows how the investigation will end, and if he knows all outcomes and the truth behind it all, you shouldn’t have to worry. However, like when Ranpo goes searching for the ability user, to stop Fukuzawa’s and Mori’s virus, if he doesn’t know the outcomes and all the factors; that is when you should be worried. Ranpo didn’t even act childish throughout the entirety of those episodes. He knew, he couldn’t solve it. While he can control the things he has power over, like the truth behind those investigations; Ranpo still has to live with the fact, he can’t solve every case, and he can’t save every person. So by portraying a childish immature persona, he can bear the darkness he holds on his shoulders, everyday. His darkness is fear. The fear, that he might not be able to hold the next investigation, the fear he might die from one of these cases, the fear that he won’t be able to save anyone. That’s his dark truth,

and yet,

He lives smiling, and giving light to everyone. It’s his way of coping.

But,

How long can he take it for, before he breaks? How long until he gives into the darkness, the truth?

I like Ranpo. He is an inspiring character to me.

(Bonus) Dazai learnt that being happy and childlike, makes it easier to hold the pain. It’s why he is mainly immature and childish too. But the fact he doesn’t hold this for every second,  like what Ranpo does, proves his darkness is much heavier and painful.
